Pike County Historical Society will present a lecture on Dennis McLaughlin, the man of the mansion known as The Columns, at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Columns Museum, 608 Broad St., Milford.

Dallas Grove, who has been researching McLaughlin for some time, will deliver the lecture.

McLaughlin was perhaps the largest landowner in Hudson County in the late 1800s. He had a 22-bedroom manse built in Milford in 1904. He and his family used the building now known as The Columns as their summer home for several years.

A traditional corned beef and cabbage lunch, dessert and coffee will follow the lecture.
